The Perils of Misspecified Priors and Optional Stopping in Multi-Armed Bandits
The connection between optimal stopping times of American Options and multi-armed bandits is the subject of active research. This article investigates the effects of optional stopping in a particular class of multi-armed bandit experiments, which ...

A multi-armed bandit approach for exploring partially observed networks
Background real-world networks such as social and communication networks are too large to be observed entirely. Such networks are often partially observed such that network size, network topology, and nodes of the original network are unknown.

Performance of Multi-Armed Bandit Algorithms in Dynamic vs. Static Environments: A Comparative Analysis [PDF]
This paper conducts a comparative analysis of Multi-Armed Bandit (MAB) algorithms, particularly the Upper Confidence Bound (UCB) and Thompson Sampling (TS) algorithms, and focuses on the performance of these algorithms in both static and dynamic ...

Genetic Algorithm Based on Multi-armed Bandit for Drone-Truck Collaborative Delivery [PDF]
The new mode of drone-truck collaborative delivery is changing the traditional logistics distribution mode with its advantages of high efficiency, environmental protection, and no terrain restrictions. The traveling salesman problem with drone (TSP-D) is

Multi-Armed Bandits and Quantum Channel Oracles [PDF]
Multi-armed bandits are one of the theoretical pillars of reinforcement learning. Recently, the investigation of quantum algorithms for multi-armed bandit problems was started, and it was found that a quadratic speed-up (in query complexity) is possible ...
